Personally, I think that if you're on Geekhack, you should learn how to properly touch type in the format (QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY, dvorak, Colemak, etc) that fits you best. Just seems weird to be on a keyboard enthusiast forum and not know proper typing technique. But in the end, if it works for you, do you.
Some of the Blues on my Filco had the same issue. I got my switches to finally feel right but you can always open it and replace the switches or RMA if its new.
